MALLORCA VILLAGES GUIDE > POLLENCA
POLLENCA

The town of Pollenca is situated in the north of the Mallorca Island and is just a 45-minute drive away from the Palma airport. The old town of Pollenca is to be found just four miles inland from Puerto Pollenca, and is dubbed by countless people to be one of the most unique, untouched and quaint Roman townships of Mallorca. The beautiful town consists of impressive stone abodes and narrow avenues. The eye-catching central square is jam-packed with locals and tourists alike every Sunday, when it holds a morning market. This is where the locals get the chance to trade off their best yield with other kinds of goods.

It is such a wonder how Pollenca has remained to be a representative of the conventional Mallorcan settlement. The township has been able to preserve its tradition and history, at the same time display a touch of sophistication and refinement. As you stroll thru its walkways, you will witness the striking presence of hushed spots, minus the glare and ostentation of the tourism industry. One place to see is the historical Calvario staircases, a lovely plaza and an ideal example of modern and ancient fusion in the town of Pollenca. There are interesting cafés and restaurants in this remarkable area which are open until late into the evening.

The breathtaking Puig de Maria (or Mary’s Mountain) serves as spectacular scenery to a lot of developing villages in Pollenca. This panoramic view of the Puig de Maria is a famous selling point for the real estate developments surrounding the area.

When tourists plan to vacation in Pollenca, there are many select accommodations to choose from. Not only are top class hotels available, there are also holiday villas and apartments to crash into if you opt for a more exclusive sanctuary while enjoying the picturesque view of nature in Pollenca. Some of the apartments may have very striking façades and visible pool sides, and other apartments may be with rustic frontage yet boast of ultra modern amenities inside. Depending on your budget, apartments may come with an elegant patio, 2 bedrooms or more, terrace, complete kitchen, laundry facilities, and even a Jacuzzi.

People who have tried vacationing in Pollenca feel a special kind of connection to the place, and its precisely the reason why they come back many times over. Some even choose to live in this part of Mallorca permanently, and this resulted in the growth of the local real estate industry in the recent years.
